It Will Last Forever, This Feeling


The weather is getting better up here, still rains everyday but not all day. No more snow, which my plants are thankful for. My new work schedule is going well, there's something great about having 4 days off a week that automatically makes life better. I've been riding my bike, taking extra classes, cooking all weekend, gardening and reading. All the things I like.

This house has the most amazing flowers right now, I thought they were fake! 

History With Me

Sorry about the lull. I'm workin' a little somethin' up to post...soon. Really.

Summer Nights

This was yesterday. Still snowing off and on today & cold as the arctic out. I already have my suitcase packed for Catalina in May.

Homemade honey wheat bread with home canned strawberry jam. I even picked the strawberries. E-mail me for the recipes, they are too long to write here.

Snickerdoodles!


1 3/4c   All-Purpose Flour

Nights out with Tammy are the most fun ever. Kings for food and drinks, then bands!
